The ointment I got from Mr. Li beforehand came in handy.
The blood-red scars on the pale skin looked particularly gruesome.
Ye Jingchen carefully applied the medicine to Xie Chang'an, feeling extremely distressed.
"Since Uncle Xie has already found an opportunity to beat you up, he probably won't find another opportunity to beat you up, right?" Ye Jingchen asked.
"Not necessarily," Xie Chang'an said.
The matter won't be easily resolved unless the emperor gives his consent.
"Learn from me. Next time you're going to get a beating, just act pitiful and act cute. Maybe Uncle Xie won't be able to bring himself to hit you!" Ye Jingchen advised him.
"You've never even acted cute towards me!" Xie Chang'an's focus completely wandered off.
He had seen Ye Jingchen act coquettishly towards the emperor a few times. No wonder the emperor spoiled Ye Jingchen without any principles. If it were him, he would have tried to pluck the moon from the sky and give it to Ye Jingchen if he wanted to act coquettishly!
Ye Jingchen was still applying medicine to him when he heard what he said, and the fingers pressing on his wound suddenly tightened.
"Hiss—" Xie Chang'an gasped in pain.
"Do you want to murder your husband?" he asked, baring his teeth.
"Crown Princess, who is the husband between us?" Ye Jingchen asked deliberately.
He didn't care much about being on top or bottom of the bed. If he really had to choose, he preferred to lie still and have Xie Chang'an serve him.
In bed, it's not only the one on top who can be dominant!
Xie Chang'an had already thought this through very clearly.
Who told Ye Jingchen to be the crown prince now?
Even for the sake of the crown prince's reputation, he had no choice but to suffer a loss.
However, he couldn't let this loss go unrecovered; he had to make up for it elsewhere!
"In front of outsiders, I may be your Crown Princess, but in bed, I'm the one in charge!" Xie Chang'an said confidently.
In all his dreams involving Ye Jingchen, Ye Jingchen was lying beneath him, letting him knead him.
Even when he was sober, he would get particularly excited every time he restrained Ye Jingchen.
As for the scene of Ye Jingchen pressing down on him, he hadn't thought about it.
However, given Ye Jingchen's skills, he wouldn't be able to subdue him unless Ye Jingchen was willing to do so.
He was absolutely certain and confident about this.
In the time it took to say just one sentence, Xie Chang'an had thought about many things.
In the dead of winter, he wasn't wearing any clothes on his upper body, but instead of feeling cold, he felt rather warm.
In particular, the pressure Ye Jingchen applied to his back was very light, as if he was applying medicine, but it made him feel itchy inside.
Ye Jingchen didn't know what Xie Chang'an was thinking, but he could feel that Xie Chang'an's back suddenly straightened up and his skin tightened, which made his shoulder blades look particularly beautiful, like butterfly wings.
No wonder they call this bone structure a butterfly bone; it truly is as beautiful as a butterfly.
It's no wonder there's a saying that true beauty lies in the bone structure, not just the skin. Just by looking at Xie Chang'an's physique, you can feel the power contained within it.
Touching it with your hands is even more enviable; it's as perfect as a work of art.
"Is my back nice to touch?" Xie Chang'an asked in a deep voice, noticing the hand roaming over his back.
He was already holding back, but Ye Jingchen went even further in provoking him. Wasn't he afraid that Ye Jingchen would lose control and take advantage of him?
"Okay—cough! It feels nice, but we're running out of time. You haven't applied medicine to your leg injury yet!" Ye Jingchen coughed and said seriously.
He pretended nothing had happened, withdrew his hand, scooped out a dollop of ointment, and squatted down to apply it to Xie Chang'an's leg.
Xie Chang'an was filled with hatred!
However, seeing Ye Jingchen squatting beside him, Xie Chang'an felt a little awkward.
He didn't feel anything when he squatted down next to Ye Jingchen's legs. He didn't feel anything when he massaged Ye Jingchen's legs, wiped his feet, or poured out the foot bath water. But when Ye Jingchen squatted down next to him, he felt uncomfortable all over.
In his heart, Ye Jingchen should not bow down or bend over for anything.
“I can take care of my leg injury myself.” He said, stretching out his hands and lifting Ye Jingchen up with undeniable force, then taking the ointment from his hand.
"Next time, can you apologize before you get beaten up? It hurts me to see you get beaten so badly!" Ye Jingchen stood to the side watching Xie Chang'an apply medicine to him, his movements rough yet practiced, and he couldn't help but say.
Xie Chang'an applied the medicine even faster, not caring at all about the pain.
He can't feel any pain now.
He quickly applied the medicine, then took Ye Jingchen's hand and washed away the residue with water from the basin. After cleaning Ye Jingchen's hands, he lifted Ye Jingchen's chin with his fingers and kissed him.
He wanted to do the same thing when Ye Jingchen touched his back, but he held back. Who knew that Ye Jingchen would then tease him with words.
After being kissed several times haphazardly but forcefully, Ye Jingchen had no choice but to push Xie Chang'an away.
Xie Chang'an glared at Ye Jingchen with displeasure.
It's always the same: he's the one who initiates the flirting, and he's also the one who won't let you touch him!
"Be gentle, don't bite! What if it swells up? How am I supposed to face people later?!" Ye Jingchen rolled his eyes at Xie Chang'an.
He's clearly a very intelligent person, but he's completely clueless and reckless when it comes to this kind of thing.
If he continues like this, Ye Jingchen wouldn't dare to stay with him until the end. He doesn't want to suffer, he doesn't want to be in pain, and he doesn't want his body to fall apart.
Xie Chang'an was somewhat bewildered.
What did Ye Jingchen mean by that?
Wasn't he trying to stop him? Why does this sound like he's encouraging him?
"Are you going to kiss me or not? If not, I'm leaving! Training is about to start!" Ye Jingchen's hand was still on Xie Chang'an's chest. He took the opportunity to give him a quick pat. He had to admit, it felt really good, especially bouncy!
Xie Chang'an finally came to his senses. He put one arm around Ye Jingchen's back, pressing his body tightly against Ye Jingchen's, and used the other hand to hold Ye Jingchen's head in place, not giving him any chance to break free. Then, with red eyes, he kissed Ye Jingchen's lips.
However, the moment his lips touched Ye Jingchen's, he remembered Ye Jingchen's words and released all his force. In the end, the force that landed on his lips was very light, as if he had been kissed by a gust of wind.
Ye Jingchen closed his eyes and, guided by his senses, gave her a long, tender, and pure kiss.
After the kiss, the two embraced quietly.
Xie Chang'an was satisfied, yet somewhat dissatisfied.
He stared intently at Ye Jingchen's moist lips, feeling that there should be more to it than that.
Ye Jingchen wanted to laugh; Xie Chang'an was so naive now.
It's hard to imagine that such a simple person was actually an emperor in his past life.
He must have been very powerful in his past life, making people afraid to approach him easily. Otherwise, someone as desirable as him would have been devoured by those scheming women long ago, leaving not even bones behind!
Now he's gotten off easy; he really likes Xie Chang'an's naivety!
